Use docker in dev?

So running the server for kobocat alone is pretty hard, do most deves just run the container? If so, are changes monitored live or do you have to restart the container after each code change? Whats best practice for getting started?

https://github.com/kobotoolbox/kobocat/issues/239 is what im hacking on now

I started each of these containers individually –

kobodocker_kobocat_1 kobodocker_mongo_1 kobodocker_rabbit_1 kobodocker_redis_main_1
kobodocker_kpi_1 kobodocker_postgres_1 kobodocker_redis_cache_1

``

and attached to cat… thats probably not the best way to go??
